UK Hand Knitting is calling on crocheters to keep soldiers warm on the front lines in Ukraine. Even as the weather starts to warm, Ukrainian soldiers and civilians are in desperate need of socks and beanie hats. The socks must be at least 75% wool and don’t need to be shaped – a tube with one end sewn closed will be enough to keep feet warm. The beanie hats can be made using any fibre, but must be in dark grey, navy, khaki, dark brown or black. UK Hand Knitting is teaming up with Huddersfield to Ukraine Humanitarian Aid to deliver the hats and socks to those who need them. Please send finished items to St Andrews Motor Company, 273, Leeds Road, Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, HD1 6NS. Visit www.ukhandknitting.com for more information, and join the Huddersfield to Ukraine Humanitarian Aid on Facebook.
